Keywords: twin jet, jet interaction, rectangular jets

In the present study, incompressible twin jet flow, emanating from identical rectangular slots is investigated experimentally. Interaction of parallel jets with small spacing ratio has been examined by using hot wire anemometer. The effect of convex surface between jet exits on the merging process and spreading characteristics of twin jet flow is studied.
